Guests’ private space now much more accessible thanks to HTML5!

Joomeo is continuing to evolve and develop. Now that public albums et public spaces, have gone online, it’s the turn of guests’ private space to be updated!

APP-FREE ACCESS TO GUESTS’ PRIVATE SPACE ON TABLETS AND SMARTPHONES

Thanks to HTML5-based spaces, your contacts no longer need a Joomeo app installed on their smartphone or tablet in order to access and see the things you share. Just a simple click on the invitation is all it takes to open up your space in their chosen browser. It’s simpler and faster, enabling your invitees to more easily enjoy the things you share.

Our iOS and Android apps are still fully operational and usable in case your contacts want to add any files to your albums.

PHOTO LAB MAKES ITS APPEARANCE ON iPAD AND iPHONE!

So far, it has not been possible for your contacts to enjoy the benefits of our photo lab on their iPhones or iPads. Thanks to our new HTML5-based spaces, however, ordering prints of your photos (or any other product in our catalogue, with the exception of photo books) can now be achieved in the blink of an eye from any tablet or smartphone!

MODERNISED DESIGN AND OPTIMISED DISPLAY ON ANY DEVICE

You’ve responded very positively to the design adopted for public spaces and albums, so we’ve therefore opted to use the same graphic style to showcase your images in the guests’ private space.

Completely adaptable to screens of all sizes and resolutions, the display and presentation of the guests’ private space is intuitive and allows for fluid, rapid navigation. Your contacts will love it!

DON’T WANT TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS NEW DEVELOPMENT? NO PROBLEM!

By default, your guests can access your private spaces directly in HTML5. However, you can decide not to use this new feature and instead retain the “classic” functionality of your Joomeo space.

You can set this option for all your contacts in your Joomeo account preferences:

Or just for certain contacts:

Your visitors can also choose to view your space in its classic version by clicking the “ADVANCED MODE” option.

Classic mode currently offers certain advantages, which is why we refer to it as “ADVANCED MODE”:
1- Import of files into your albums.
2- Preservation of advanced contact rights.
3- The ability to add photo books to the shopping cart.

SO WHAT’S NEXT?

This development represents a new stage for Joomeo. The full range of features and functions available in advanced mode will soon also be available in HTML5. The final stage will be to migrate the various spaces in the main control interface to HTML.

But let’s not jump the gun! We are currently working on providing new features in the public and private spaces, such as the ability for authorized visitors to import files into your albums.

A mouthwatering prospect isn’t it? So, to ensure you are able to take full advantage of our upcoming new features and developments, consider subscribing to our newsletters and following us on social networks!
